Once the supplement has entered into the central nervous system it is able to bind with GABA receptors. This serves to increase activity in GABA sites within the brain.
Since this neurotransmitter is considered to be the chief inhibitory chemical within the human body, it has the effect of reducing the level of excitement within the brain.Most neurotransmitters affected by nootropics are excitatory, meaning that their release causes other neurons to fire.
When GABA is released, those active nerves or neurons are targeted and are regulated in such a way as to limit their firing rate.Phenibut basically off-sets some of the stimulation that occurs in the brain so that only the most important signals get through.
This allows for a number of benefits including a reduction in stress and anxiety and the improved ability to relax. It is also thought that this substance functions to protect nerves and neurons within the brain.
